Welcome to Bay Area Wedding Photography Blog

I have been a wedding photographer in the Bay Area for the past 7 years. I started my creative career with a Bachelors of Arts degree in Graphic Design from Academy of Art College in San Francisco. I worked as a graphic designer for many years, until I decided to pursue my true passion in life – capturing the moments as they unfold.

Please contact me if you have any questions or are interested in booking.

When you select Wedgewood to host your celebration, you’re booking with a supporter of local non-profit organizations and charities. Since the Zaruka family started Wedgewood in 1986, they wanted community involvement to be a cornerstone of Wedgewood’s business model.

For nearly 30 years, Wedgewood has hosted numerous charity events to benefit associations like Capes for Heroes, the Boys and Girls Club and The Cure for Breast Cancer. The Zarukas have raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for local schools, youth sports groups and food banks, such as FOOD Share of Ventura County, CA.

Wedgewood also hosts Rotary and Kiwanis meetings at our venues at a deeply discounted rate. Some of our golf locations are recognized as Certified Audubon Sanctuaries because of the work they do to protect the environment.

Whether you endorse education, youth opportunities or feeding the unfortunate, you can feel confident you’re booking with a venue that shares the same values as you.
